    There are a lot of resources at Robotic Heart Bypass Surgery. They have a full length surger that you can watch and better understand. Good Luck

    He will most likely need the surgery but some things that are good for the heart are
    Antioxidents -fresh fruits and vegetables
    (If he is taking blood thinners this might not be good because it could thin the blood too much)

    Eat lots of garlic
    Some supplements that may be good for him

    CO Q 10 (especially if he is taking cholestrol medicine)

    Hawthorn berry helps regulate the heart
    Seven flowers also regulates the heart

    Some other things that are good for the heart are taurine, turmeric and some B vitamins

    I don't know what combinations of these things would be good for him so it is best to check with an alternatives medicine doctor or ask your doctor about CAM therapy
